[Twinsen][0.17.66] Storage tank entities ignore pipe_picture in their fluid boxes
Posted: Fri Aug 23, 2019 2:49 pm
I'm trying to make a custom storage tank using left-over bits and pieces from other sprites. The originating model was a furnace type entity with fluid boxes including both pipe_picture and pipe_covers. On the furnace, pipe_picture is drawn correctly when a pipe connects to that pipe connection. With the storage tank, pipe_picture seems to be completely ignored:
I guess the vanilla tank doesn't need pipe_picture defined in its fluid box because it's all baked into the base sprite. But I expected that a fluid box is a fluid box is a fluid box.
The storage tank fluid_box definition:
(The get_layer function fetches bits of the same overlay sprite that was used successfully on the furnace entity, the definition is identical).
